SUMMARY: The famous Dead Sea Scrolls, preserved for centuries in the depths of a Qumran cave, were discovered by a Bedouin some fifty years ago. Some have been lost, or rather stolen... Notably the one called "the scroll of the messiah", which is known to speak of Jesus in an explicit and dangerous way for Christianity... Ary, young Jewish paleographer, and his friend Alexander, archaeologist, are commissioned by the father of Ary, himself an Israeli archaeologist, to find the lost manuscripts of Qumran. They embark on a search that is as initiatory as it is dangerous and are therefore in constant danger of death. Because those who are closely interested in the Dead Sea Scrolls are often found crucified...

SUMMARY: Ary, an orthodox Jew who is very strict in his faith, and his friend Alexander, an archaeologist, are constantly searching for the scroll of the messiah, stolen from the famous Dead Sea Scrolls. The demand comes directly from the father of Ary, archaeologist also. It seems indeed that this scroll illuminates the life of Jesus, it could even question certain foundations of Christianity. Much of what displease some! Moreover, malicious shadows seem to follow step by step their investigation Each meeting that could bring them a new index results in a crucifixion in order. A macabre threat that comes closer to them every day, until Ary attends helplessly to the realization of his most intimate fears.
